Transparent mode installation

Configuring the FortiGate unit

You do not have to reconnect to the web-based manager at this time. Once you select Apply, the changes are immediate, and you can go to the system dashboard to verify the FortiGate unit has changed to Transparent mode.

To configure DNS server settings

1Go to System > Network > Options.

2Enter the IP address of the primary DNS server.

3Enter the IP address of the secondary DNS server.

4Select Apply.

Using the command line interface

As an alternative to the web-based manager, you can begin the initial configuration of the FortiGate unit using the command line interface (CLI). To connect to the CLI, see “Connecting to the CLI” on page 23. Use the information you gathered in Table 14 on page 43 to complete the following procedures.

To change to Transparent mode using the CLI

1Make sure you are logged into the CLI.

2Switch to Transparent mode. Enter:

config system settings

set opmode transparent

set manageip <address_ip> <netmask> set gateway <address_ip>

end

After a few seconds, the following prompt appears:

Changing to TP mode

3To confirm you have changed to transparent mode, enter the following: get system status

The CLI displays the status of the FortiGate unit including the management IP address and netmask:

opmode

:

transparent

manageip

:

<address_ip> <netmask>

You should verify the DNS server settings are correct. The DNS settings carry over from NAT/Route mode and may not be correct for your specific Transparent mode configuration.

To verify the DNS server settings

Enter the following commands to verify the FortiGate unit’s DNS server settings:

show system dns

The above command should give you the following DNS server setting information:

config system dns

set primary 293.44.75.21 set secondary 293.44.75.22 set fwdirtf internal

end
